Ahhh....SPRING!!

Here on Laurel Lane, we are really getting into the spirit of a classic Oregon spring:

The cherry trees are a froth of white...

The canoes are yearning for white water...

The grass is growing long...almost time for a mow?

I have my (waterproof) work boots on!

Perhaps a grandchild will come play with us today...

Yes indeed, the skies are beginning to show some blue...

...and we are measuring up for a beautiful spring day here on Laurel Lane!

Sorry the photo is blurry...that's 2" of snow this morning. We had a phone call at 5:30 a.m., telling us the district was calling a snow day. Since this was to be the last day of school before spring break, Mark and I are currently enjoying the first of 18 days with no school.

About Me

I am a mom/stepmom of 9 beautiful adult children, and I am "Grandma Kathy" to 25 amazing grandchildren! I teach at Oregon City High School, take writing classes at Portland State University, and spend most of my waking and sleeping hours with my sweetheart, Mark. I escape to the woods to go hiking whenever I can, and I also love to write, read, sew, work in the yard, and putter around the house. I have a media disability that makes it almost impossible for me to sit still through a movie or tv show, but I can sit and read or write for hours. My blog is G-rated, so if you respond, please keep it Grandma-appropriate!
